The Moon waxes from the 14th to the 30th: good for starting new projects. The Moon wanes from the 1st to the 14th and on the 31st: good for finishing projects and tying up loose ends. The Moon of the 14th is a Solar Eclipse. It is usually wise to take a reduced schedule and avoid stressful activities during such a time, but read on for more details. The Moon of the 30th is a Lunar Eclipse – again, it would be wise to ease up on your schedule and avoid stressful situations. See below for more information.

Mars move out of your 4th House on the 8th should bring relative stability to your home and domestic life this month. Domestic and family issues are far from stable in an absolute sense – there will be changes going on here for years to come – but in a relative sense. Temper tantrums and mood swings will be less intense.

Mars’ move into Pisces is also a positive health and financial signal for you. Enjoy.

Two Eclipses shake up the world this month, but you remain relatively unaffected. For you they seem good. Yes, you are affected, but in a way that creates opportunities and forward progress. Obstructions to your good are being blown away.

The Eclipses are mostly impacting your job, career and financial life. Your love life could be affected by the Lunar Eclipse of the 30th in that Venus is involved in this. But even this seems to involve finance, or financial arrangements between you and your beloved.

The Solar Eclipse of the 14th affects finances and the job. Important and long-term job changes are coming to pass. Those of you who are dissatisfied with your present job – and who are perhaps only in it for money – will now have an opportunity to find something better. Long-simmering resentments and problems will surface and you won’t be able to sweep them under the carpet any more. In many cases there will be job changes within your present company. Fellow workers or employees could leave, creating opportunities for you. This is all very positive – though disruptive.

Finances are unusually strong this month and the Solar Eclipse of the 14th will probably only strengthen them further – but in unexpected and disruptive ways. Probably through the career and job changes mentioned above. As the months go by, though, you will find that your balance sheet is strengthened.

A client I knew well had a long-term and personal relationship with his bank manager. Then an Eclipse hit his financial life – the bank manager was transferred to another branch far away. The new bank manager wasn’t inclined to be nearly as understanding and helpful – my client felt it was a catastrophe.

But within a few days he’d found a new bank that offered better terms, better service and fewer fees. Ultimately he was better off than before. There are many such anecdotes, but there is no space for them – I’m sure you understand my point.
